Concept:

Coordination number -

  • Coordination number is the number of coordinate bonds with which the ligands are bound to central ion.
  • Ligand can be unidentate, bidentate and polydentate and ambidentate. 

Oxidation state - 

  • Oxidation state also known as the oxidation number of an element is the number of positive or negative charges assigned to that element in a compound.
  • It is the number of electrons lost or gained by an atom of that element.

 

Explanation:

Coordination number of Cr in  K[Cr(C2O4)3]

  • The oxalate (C2O4)2- is a bidentate ligand. 
  • Each oxalate ligand coordinate through two oxygen atoms.
  • A total of three oxalate ligands are present in the coordination sphere with the Cr metal ion.
  • Therefore, the coordination number of Cr is 6.

Complexes Question 3:

The species that can have a trans-isomer is:

(en=ethane-1, 2-diamine, ox=oxalate)

  1. [Zn(en)Cl2]
  2. [Pt(en)2Cl2]2+
  3. [Cr(en)2(ox)]+
  4. More than one of the above
  5. None of the above

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : [Pt(en)2Cl2]2+

Complexes Question 3 Detailed Solution

Concept:

Cis-Trans Isomers are isomers that differ in the arrangement of two ligands in square planar and octahedral geometry.

Cis isomers are isomers where the two ligands are 90 degrees apart from one another in relation to the central molecule. This is because Cis isomers have a bond angle of 90o, between two same atoms.

Trans isomers are isomers where the two ligands are on opposite sides in a molecule because trans isomers have a bond angle of 180o, between the two same atoms.

When naming cis or trans isomers, the name begins either with cis or trans, whichever applies, followed by a hyphen and then the name of a molecule.

Cis-trans Isomerism is possible with [Pt(en)2Cl2]2+

Only square planar and octahedral geometries can have cis or trans isomers.

(Dichloro(ethelyenediamine)platinum (II)) shows only optical isomerism. The other complexes do not show stereoisomerism.

Stereoisomerism, is also called as spatial isomerism, is a form of isomerism in which molecules have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms (constitution), but differ in the three-dimensional orientations of their atoms in space. This contrasts with structural isomers which shares the same molecular formula, but the bond connections or their order differs.

Complexes Question 4:

Comprehension:

Werner’s theory was the pioneer to explain the bonding in coordinate complexes. According to his theory, there are two types of valences associated with central metal ions i.e. primary valency and secondary valency. But this theory was not able to predict the properties of coordinate complexes. VBT does have some advantages over Werner’s theory but still is having some significant drawbacks. Crystal field splitting theory and ligand field splitting theory got great success in depicting the properties of complexes with higher accuracy. CFST states that when ligands approach the isolated metal ion then the ligand’s field splits the degenerated d-orbitals of the isolated metal ion into the states of higher and lower energy with a forbidden energy gap in between.

A d4 complex has an electronic configuration as  \(\rm t_{2g}^3, e_g^1\), then which of the following is true

  1. Δ0 > P
  2. Δ0​ < P
  3. Δ0​ = P
  4. Δ0​ > 0

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : Δ0​ < P

Complexes Question 4 Detailed Solution

Concept:

Crystal Field Stabilization Energy -

  • It is also abbreviated as CFSE.
  • It is the amount of stabilization provided by the splitting of d-orbitals in two levels.
  • It is denoted by Δin the octahedral field and Δt in the tetrahedral field.
  • If  Δ> Pairing energy, the complex will be a low spin complex.
  • If  Δ < Pairing energy, the complex will be a high spin complex.

Explanation:

Given that the d4 complex has an electronic configuration as  \(\rm t_{2g}^3, e_g^1\), indicates complex is a high spin.

For high spin complexes,  Δo < Pairing energy.

For a high spin d4 complex splitting is - 
qImage6641fbe854b70447db53630e
CFSE = [-0.4× 3 + 0.6 × 1] Δ.

= - 0.6 Δ

Conclusion:

Thus, for a d4 complex has an electronic configuration as  \(\rm t_{2g}^3, e_g^1\),  Δis always < Pairing energy.

Hence, the correct answer is option 1.

The total number of electrons accommodated by Fe is [Fe(CO)5] are

  1. 26
  2. 36
  3. 34
  4. 18

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 36

Complexes Question 5 Detailed Solution

Concept:

Effective Atomic Number (EAN) rule -

  • The total no. of electrons present with the central metal atom in a coordination complex is called as the EAN.
  • It is also known as the 18e- rule.

It is calculated by using the formula - ​T

Total electron on central metal = (Z-x) + 2nl, 

where

  • Z = atomic no. of metal
  • x = oxidation state of metal
  • n = number of ligands attached
  • L = no. of coordinate bonds formed

Explanation:

The total number of electrons accommodated by Fe in [Fe(CO)5is given by the Effective Atomic Number(EAN) rule.

According to the EAN rule, 

Total electron on Fe = (Z-x) + 2nl

where

  • Z = atomic no. of Fe
  • x = oxidation state of Fe
  • n = number of ligands attached
  • L = no. of coordinate bonds formed

Oxidation no. of Fe in [Fe(CO)5] is 0.

Thus, EAN for Fe = (26-0) + 2 × 1 × 5 = 26+10 = 36

Hence, the total number of electrons accommodated by Fe = 36

Conclusion:

The total number of electrons accommodated by Fe in  [Fe(CO)5] is 36.

 

Complexes Question 6:

Which sets of the d- orbitals are directly oriented towards the ligands in octahedral coordination compounds?

  1. dx2 - y2 and dxy
  2. dz2 and dyz
  3. dxz and dxy
  4. dx2 - y2 and dz2

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : dx2 - y2 and dz2

Complexes Question 6 Detailed Solution

Correct answer: 4)

Concept:

  • According to Crystal Field Theory, as a ligand approaches the metal ion, the electrons in the d-orbitals and those in the ligand repel each other due to repulsion between like charges.
  • Thus the d-electrons closer to the ligands will have a higher energy than those further away which results in the d-orbitals splitting in energy. 
  • The dxy, dxz and dyz orbitals all lie between the bond axes.
  • These three orbitals will be changed in energy only a little.
  • These orbitals are more like non-bonding orbitals.
  • These orbitals are sometimes called the "t2g" set of orbitals.

Explanation:

  • d-subshell has five orbitals, i.e. dx2−y2​,dz2​,dxy,​dxz​ and dyz​.
  • There are two d orbitals that will interact very strongly with these ligands: the dx2−y2, which lies directly on the x and y axes, and the dz2, which lies directly on the z-axis.
  • Together, these two metal orbitals and the ligand orbitals that interact with them will form new bonding and antibonding molecular orbitals.
  • The dx2−y2 and the dz2 orbitals lie along the bond axes.
  • These two orbitals will be raised relatively high in energy.
  • These orbitals are like antibonding levels.
  • These orbitals are sometimes called the "eg" set of orbitals. The term "eg" comes from the mathematics of symmetry.

Conclusion:

Thus, dx2 - y2 and dzsets of the d- orbitals are directly oriented towards the ligands in octahedral coordination compounds.

  2. [Pt(en)Cl2]
  3. [Cr(en)2(ox)]+
  4. [Pt(en)2Cl2]2+
  5. [Cr(en)Cl2]

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : [Pt(en)2Cl2]2+

Complexes Question 8 Detailed Solution

Concept:

Cis-Trans Isomers are isomers that differ in the arrangement of two ligands in square planar and octahedral geometry.

Cis isomers are isomers where the two ligands are 90 degrees apart from one another in relation to the central molecule. This is because Cis isomers have a bond angle of 90o, between two same atoms.

Trans isomers are isomers where the two ligands are on opposite sides in a molecule because trans isomers have a bond angle of 180o, between the two same atoms.

When naming cis or trans isomers, the name begins either with cis or trans, whichever applies, followed by a hyphen and then the name of a molecule.

Cis-trans Isomerism is possible with [Pt(en)2Cl2]2+

Only square planar and octahedral geometries can have cis or trans isomers.

(Dichloro(ethelyenediamine)platinum (II)) shows only optical isomerism. The other complexes do not show stereoisomerism.

Stereoisomerism, is also called as spatial isomerism, is a form of isomerism in which molecules have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms (constitution), but differ in the three-dimensional orientations of their atoms in space. This contrasts with structural isomers which shares the same molecular formula, but the bond connections or their order differs.
